Meade County commission removes court-appointed attorney fees after Chapter 7 filing
Summary
The commission voted to remove court-appointed attorney fees from accounts receivable for Darla Michelson after staff said a Chapter 7 bankruptcy prevents collection; the motion passed by voice vote with no further action announced.
Speaker 2 told the commission that, because of a Chapter 7 bankruptcy, the county would not collect court-appointed attorney fees for Darla Michelson. "We won't be collecting any court appointed attorney fees for a Darla Michelson," Speaker 2 said.
Speaker 3 moved to remove the fees from the county's accounts receivable and Speaker 1 seconded. After no discussion, the commission approved the motion by voice vote.
The action instructs county staff to remove the identified fees from receivables; commissioners did not specify a dollar amount or next administrative steps in public. The transcript records the decision as a voice vote; individual roll-call votes were not recorded.
